Hilton HHonors has a new promotion for quadruple Virgin Atlantic miles between March 31 and June 30, 2013, at participating Hilton family of hotels in London and Scotland. You need to register for this promotion and access Hilton’s web page for this promotion here.
The beauty of having Virgin Atlantic as Hilton HHonors double dip fixed mile partner is the earning rate of 1000 Flying Club miles per stay at full service properties. This is quadrupled to total of 4000 miles per stay during the promotional period.
You can later convert these Virgin Atlantic Flying Club miles back to Hilton HHonors at 1 VS = 2 HH. You can consider this as a 6000 bonus Hilton HHonors points per stay in addition to 2000 points that you would usually get by having Virgin Atlantic as your partner and converting them back to points.
I have written an article about Hilton’s Double Dip program that you can access here and using Virgin Atlantic as your strategic partner to maximize your Hilton HHonors point earnings that you can access here.
Conclusion
This is not bad promotion at all. You would get 8K HH per stay having VS as your double dip partner, 2K HH from the 2nd quarter promo (Daily Grand) for weekend night, and 1K HH Diamond bonus + base points as well. This would be at least 12K to 13K HH per stay.
